How do I merge audio tracks in Premiere?

So I recorded some gameplay using MSI Afterburner (x264 codec) and had it split my mic audio from the game audio as a separate audio track, to prevent the game audio from being muted whenever I talk. I used handbrake to transcode the avi to m4v, and the clip works in AE/premiere. When I load it in VLC, I can confirm that there are two audio tracks. My question is, where is the section in premiere that shows the audio tracks, and how would I merge them into one track?

If you have a clean signal on one channel, and the other is empty, you can use the Audio Effect>Fill Left, or Fill Right, to get back to two channel. Note, this will be 2-channel mono, and not true stereo, but will sound very similar, just without the separation.
Now, if you have one clean channel, but a problem with the other (bad Audio), I'd take the Audio portion of your File into an Audio editor, like Audacity, and strip out the bad channel, then just duplicate the good channel to replace it. That is basically what Fill-Left, etc. does, but if you have bad Audio, you will want to clean that out first.
Good luck,
Hunt

How do I combine audio tracks in Premiere Elements 7?

My audio cable went bad as I was recording a program on my camcorder. It only recorded one track. Is there a way to combine these two tracks or Copy & paste one track to the other?
Thanks

I think that John pointed you to, and you found, the PrE forum. Just in case, the method will depend.
Do you have one good channel of stereo? Is the other channel good, but empty, or is there noise in it?
If the former, look into the Audio Effect>Fill Left & Fill Right (choose what you need).
In the case of the latter, I'd edit first in an Audio editing program, like Audacity. There are many ways to get the Audio from your AV file into Audacity, but Importing just the Audio is probably the easiest - basically ripping the Audio from the muxed AV file. I believe that Audactiy can do this. I use Adobe Audition, and it does it easily.
Next, you can delete the bad channel, and dupe the good channel, placing it on the other channel. Save_As 48KHz 16-bit PCM/WAV and Import into PrE.
BTW - PrE will combine all Audio onto the Master Track at Export.
Good luck,
Hunt

How can I merge 2 tracks into one track with iTunes 11? I used to do it with iTunes/Advanced/Join Tracks, but iTunes 11 does not have an "Advanced" button.

How can I merge 2 tracks into one track with iTunes 11?

Thanks for your reply, Jim. I imported a CD that I had burned previously with the 2 tracks of sound effects that I had downloaded from the internet (MP3 files), but I did not see an option to join the tracks when I imported the CD. In the upper right corner there were three buttons: Options, CD Info, and Import CD. When I click on Options, the drop-down menu has two choices: "Get Track Names" and "Submit CD Track Names". I cannot find an option to Join Tracks. Help!

How do you combine audio tracks in quicktime 10.2

You don't. Use QT 7 Pro or GarageBand instead. (Video editors will also merge multiple audio tracks but they are likely more limited than QT 7 Pro which allows up to 99 data tracks.) GarageBand, also based on older QT 7 Pro technology, allows you to segment tracks, set track or selected track segment volumes to duck track or track segments, adjust or "rubberband" master track volumes, adjust stereo pan for track or selected track segments as well as, "slide" tracks or track segments along the time axis and apply numerous enhancements beyond my ability to even remember here.

How to play multiple audio tracks simultaneously?

Hi there,
I am having problem with playing multiple audio tracks. I want to play 2 or more audio tracks at exact time (without delay) - is it possible? how can it be done?

So, essentially, you're trying to take a recording of say, a singer and a guitar player, and end up with the singer in one file and the guitar in the other. Got it.
[http://java.sun.com/javase/technologies/desktop/media/jmf/2.1.1/solutions/Merge.html]
That sample will merge multiple input files into a single file. Because you want to play the files together rather than save them, just take the sample and strip out all of the DataSink stuff, and add the following line right after the Processor "outputProcessor" is realized...
outputProcessor.setContentDescriptor(null);
So, it'll make the following revision to the code:
     // Create the output processor
     ProcessorModel outputPM = new MyPMOut(merger);
     try {
         outputProcessor = Manager.createRealizedProcessor(outputPM);
                    outputProcessor.setContentDescriptor(null);
         outputDataSource = outputProcessor.getDataOutput();
     } catch (Exception exc) {
         System.err.println("Failed to create output processor: " + exc);
         System.exit(-1);
     }That'll make the outputProcessor play the file, as if it was a Player object. You won't have any visual controls, but if you need visual controls, then don't do that, and just create a Player object to play the outputDataSource.

How to edit both audio tracks with video that has two tracks?

I have video that has 2 tracks with it. Both however are marked ch. 1 on the premiere timeline. The properties say they are 48000 hz audio. Now when i hilight both tracks and right click to edit in Audition, only one comes over. I am wondering a few things here. Why are they both the same channel and how can i edit both of them at once since they ae exactly the same in Audition? Do i even need both tracks?

Well, that's another nasty problem with multicam editing in PP. It cuts only the video but not both. The audio track is always that of the first selected clip (of that in the first video track) when I create a multicam sequence. I have manually to open it in the timeline, enable or disable certain audio tracks, go back to the sequence and cut. But when I have to switch the audio for only some camera angles it is impossible, because I can only change the audio track for the whole sequence. Or do I miss something? Maybe it is another cool "design feature"?

Merge audio tracks in QT Pro?

I have a .mov file (created by capturing video in quicktime pro with a video camera attached by firewire) which has somehow ended up with multiple audio tracks, all starting at different points. (How that happened is a complete mystery to me, but is kind of beside the point right now, though I wouldn't mind knowing that too). Each audio track seems to pick up where the last left off (as in, if you delete one, there is no longer sound for a certain portion of the video). I need to merge these tracks into one audio track, because Final Cut Express HD is giving me errors when I try to import these many-track files. I know I could solve it by just using export or save as..., but I'm really trying to avoid that if possible because I have about 20 clips like this, some as long as 5 hours, and that would take a ton of time and effort.
So, is there any way to just merge the audio tracks into one track, without doing an export?
Thanks!
Claire

is there a way to have alll 6 open and then combine or merge them into one file that I can play on ATV?
for this strategy, I would normally use the free MPEG Streamclip application. To begin, ensure the files are named alpha-numerically in the order in which you want them merged. Then open the MPEG Streamclip application and either "drag 'n drop" all six files to the work area or use the "Open Files..." File menu option to simultaneously select/open all six files. Lastly, export the merged file to the TV preset at the correct aspect ratio/dimensions and/or custom settings desired.
I have done the above but have a audio out of sync problem with it.
You could try pre-converting all AVI files to a common compression format like DV with the "Resample Audio to 48 Khz" and see if this prevents drift during the "merging" and final conversion process.

How to edit only audio tracks in multicam sequences?

How can I cut only the audio track in a multicam sequence? I need it like in Final Cut Pro: Cut both video and audio, cut only video track x while audio track y remains untouched, cut only audio track x while video track y remains untouched. I can't find any solution. I use Premiere Pro CS6. Please don't recommend CC!

How to disable the audio track in QT Pro Movie Recording

I have a device that allows me to record DVI video (1900x1200 uncompressed) into QuickTime Pro through the Movie Recording function. It all works very well except I am trying to record video only (it's the video output of a medical device, so there is no sound). In QT pro preferences, the choices for audio input are "automatic", built-in microphone", or "line-in". I need the choice of "none" (at these files sizes I need all of the CPU's resources working on the video to improve continuity and frame rate). Does anyone know of a script to disable the audio recording portion, or how I might write one? I have never written script before, but that won't stop me from trying to learn how (or rather, launching into a prolonged period of trial and error).
I am also going to approach this by nagging the video device manufacturer, but they are more Windows- centric (they do support Mac OS X and some Linux platform so all hope is not lost). However, it would be easier if I could have more control over my own destiny, and Mac folk seem to be much more helpful.
Thanks in advance to anyone who may be able to help.

First, thanks for the quick reply.
Setting the audio option to line-in with nothing plugged in yields the same results. The device (which is essentially a continuous frame grabber) doesn't have any audio feed at all, and I think that is what is confusing QuickTime. The file I record generates one video track and several sequential audio tracks that start at roughly every 4 seconds. The movie info say that these are Big Endian Stereo L&R tracks, and that have virtually no file size to speak of. Audibly there is nothing. However, the constant "start over" with the audio is causing 2-3 second skips in the video. When the video is recording contiguously, the frame rates are on the order of 15 to 20 fps, which at 1900x1200 is fantastic for what I am doing (software training video of a Linux-based medical device; nothing cool like Snapz available for this beast).
By the way, I have tried Hack TV Carbon, hTV 0.2 and QT Broadcaster, all which will recognize the device as an input source, but not choose it. These would let me deselect the audio input. As mentioned, I am prodding the device manufacturer for help, too, so maybe they will come up with something to address this.
The other thing is that this device creates a video stream that is transferred by USB2. If it was a Firewire device, I would be all over this with iMovie HD or a HD Video recorder, and just be done with it. Apple may have to come up with some universal driver to accept USB video in since they have dropped FW on some of the new models, but this frame grabber isn't on the list as of now.
No real solution I can find to convert USB to Firewire.
Anyway, I am hoping that somehow I could get into the QT script and just disable the audio recording, like the old "save as Un-editable" script would pullout the "save" function of the QuickTime action.
Of course, dumping the audio tracks after the fact doesn't fix the video; once it's chopped up coming in...
I suspect that the real answer to this issue lies with the frame grabber manufacturer. But, I am still hopeful that the QuickTime Script writers out there (or the Terminal folks) may have something up their sleeves.
Thanks for noticin' me.

How do I collapse audio tracks

I'm in FCP X 10.1 and can't figure how to collapse the audio so the black line is remove above the track so I can do cut without getting out of sync (see right side of image). Here's what it looks like. PS what is the view called and how did it happen.

Are you talking about this black bar?
You can't remove that. It's the shelf that connects the secondary storyline that's created when the audio cross fade transition is applied. It connects the two pieces of audio that were separate connected clips, connected to the multicam clip on the primary storyline. It looks like you detached the multicam clip audio from the multicam clip.

Opened FCP Clip In STP . . . Now How Do I Add Audio Tracks?

I have opened an FCP 6 video clip in STP and the video and 2 audio tracks are facing me.
I want to get rid of the clip's audio tracks and replace them with tracks on which I am going to create a musical background.
I am not concerned about deleting the original audio tracks as I can mute them back in FCP but I would like to add some new tracks for the music.
It was dead simple in the old Soundtrack 1.5 but how do I do it in STP ?

I'm on STP 2.0.2 and page 409 doesn't seem to have anything relevant but your sentences do!
I tried "Send to STP Multitrack Project" and that seems to fit the bill.
So why didn't I try it earlier? I made an assumption . . . . . I assumed that "multitrack" was synonymous with "multicam" and as I wasn't exporting a multicam file, it would not be appropriate.
It's not the first time I have been tripped up by terminology.
Thanks for nudging me in the right direction, Paul.

How do I send audio tracks to an Aux channel

I want to send 3 channels of back up vocal to an Aux channel.
An Aux channel has Sends, which a Bus does not. I EQ and set the levles on each channel. Then after I have a good blending mix, I would like to send them to an Aux channel and use a compressor & limiter.
The point is to send the processed vocals from the Aux to a Bus that has a good reverb and then turn the send knob depending on how much of the backup vocals I want to send to the reverb on the Bus channel, and also that I can assign other channels to that bus too. When I click under the I/O on one of the channels, there are only Bus options.
How can I get vocals in to an Aux channel and control the volume, compression, and limiting and then send them to a Bus?

Route your audio track to bus 1 (for example) . . . now on an Aux object, set it's input as Bus 1. Now you are free to use the Sends on Aux 1 (to a different Bus) as you see fit.
